I do not know ? I think it is Japan. They have manufacturing there. There is a New York office, BUT, they do not make lenses there, just the USA office.

Made in China. Being a retired Customs Inspector, that is something that I like to check prior to buying also. The reviews were so good for this lens and the same lens with the Sony name was twice as much, so I gave it a chance. The lens has been great and given me some outstanding pictures. Check Tamron's web site, because often they offer rebates up to $100 as long as the lens is purchased at an authorized dealer like Amazon.

Hi Christine, There is a ring on the top of the lens, you have to remove it to place the Hood. Best Juan

Yeah the exact same thing happen to me. I hope the lens it's stuck to is not too expensive. Cause the way I chose to remove it was by forcefully twisting it off. If it's a cheap kit lens a little plastic piece will break off. But the lens will work just fine. It won't destroy it, just modify it a little.

No, it's just the connector for the lens to the body. Try Googling the exploded view of the parts for what you need precisely.

I believe the eye piece and the lens are designed to be offset. I do not have the one in the picture, my eye piece is at an angle and not horizontal. But either model is supposed to be offset.

There is a small lever that releases the pin that holds the adapter to the lens. Its not the strongest so handle with care.

It is but after we took the tiny screws out to replace, there was no way we could figure out how to change it. I ended up sending the ring i bought and the lens back to Nikon to repair.

Thanks for coming back to respond. I was wondering what actually shipped with the lens.

You basically have to take the thing apart, there's a tiny set screw that holds the lens in place that comes loose sometimes.

Hi, the knob on the side is a lock pin that you use to release the lens from the adapter (just added safety). When you want to remove the lens hold the lens and adapter vertical and push the knob straight down. Easy as that. Does that help?

The clear center lens twists and comes out of the front of the white housing. When you remove the lens it exposes the screw holes to mount the white housing to whatever you are going to attach it to. After you have mounted the white housing push the clear lens back in the center and twist to lock in place.

There's a tab that locks down onto the lens preventing you from "unscrewing" the lens out counter-clockwise. If you look at it you should be able to see what I'm talking about. You can use your thumbnail to push that tab up and rotate the lens counter-clockwise to release it from the adapter. Hope that helps.

The lens comes screwed into the housing with four screws, then the assembled light is screwed into place with another four screws (not supplied). I hope this helps. Serge

If you look at the movie mount in the landscape position the lens should be on the top corner. Along the bottom edge (center) is a hole that is threaded to fit the screw of the tripod.

This is a fixed lens at 50 mm. You cannot move the lens back and forth to any other mm.

The lens , I don't know. What I know, is that you can't change it and it is very narrow angle. For me, to narrow.

I believe china and what do you mean by "come out from the other side"? If you are talking about how normal EF mount lenses lock in and you have to press the release button then yes.
